3.84 AVERAGE


Surprising and well written!

TELL ME HOW I KNEW IT WAS SIMON BEFORE I FINISHED IT. I WAS THINKING “ NO DUH ITS PROBABLY SIMON SINCE HE LIKES DRAMA AND STUFF LIKE THAT” I FRICKIN KNEW IT.


I rated it a 2, i liked the book. But, the only thing that kept me going was waiting to find out who the murderer is. Everything was rushed, ( romances and stuff) anyways I didn’t find their personal lives interesting. I also realized i don’t like POV switching. It confuses me. If you like mysteries this book is good for you although. The ending on finding out it was Simon wasn’t the ending I wanted. It would be better if it was someone who we were close to and tricked by, yk? That’s called a huge plot twist.

This book was so good!! It had me on edge the entire time I couldn’t get enough. All of the characters were amazing my favorite being Bronwyn and Nate. I Highly recommend this book. Can’t wait to read the next one.

One of Us Is Lying is a fun and easy read that had me hooked from the start. The characters are really well done despite fitting common stereotypes in high school stories, and I enjoyed how their storylines unfolded. Even though I was able to guess the ending, it didn’t take away from how much I enjoyed reading the book. It’s a great mix of high school drama and mystery, perfect for a quick and enjoyable read!

An excellent YA thriller! I'm late to the party here, but wow that was good. I was able o deduce a FEW things on my own, which made it really fun, but it wasn't until right before the reveal that I got an idea for who it was. 

I found myself also really enjoying the romance that takes place.

Good god I Loved the characters and their developement but the whole Plot just involving poor police work is really poor itself. The Police IS the worst ive ever seen in a teen book

I very much enjoyed this book. The main characters started as standard teen tropes (nerd, jock, etc) but, as we learned their secrets, they became deeper. This would make a good movie or limited tv series. (I was casting characters the whole time I was reading it!)

I knew It!!!

I hated that I knew who killed Simon from the beginning but for the most part the plot twist did catch me off guard. I was able to enjoy this book a lot more because it was told from multiple first person points of view, but I would have loved to have read about Simon from the days leading up to his murder. I love that there was a little romance along with some character development.

Where was the amazing book, everyone recommended?! Don’t get me started on the tv show…
